CD133 exhibited an increased mRNA content from 0.95 (Min–Max: 0.41–5.21) to 3.57 (Min–Max: 0.04–99.55) in GBM but this failed to reach statistical significance ( p = 0.0879).

In addition, Kaplan-Meier analyses of Sparc mRNA levels also showed a slight trend towards a prolonged survival time for patients having a higher Sparc mRNA expression but this effect was only visible after 200 days of the survival period (Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon Test, p = 0.1974, hazard ratio: 1.416).
Our univariate survival curves of Nestin protein data showed a trend towards a better survival time in patients expressing lower Nestin levels.
